Before 5.004_04 was due, I submitted a patch to perl5-porters,
unfortunately 1. it was too late for release and 2. it was too FreeBSD
specific. 

There was talk to expand the patch for other OSes but it got lost somehow
on the list.

The patch is in perl5's ports in /usr/ports/lang/perl5 anyway and in
contrib/perl5.

See /usr/ports/lang/perl5/patches/patch-ad.
